Zehner notes that short courses have proved to be one of the most popular features of the Annual Meeting. "The first such course was a single offering two years ago," he says. "Interest was so keen that two more were added last year. This year's plans call for another trebling, and there was interest expressed in several other topics which for various reasons didn't gel into a proposed course."
STUDENT AWARDS
At present, plans call for nine courses: Surface and Thin Film Analysis Ion Implantation Into Metals Ion Implantation Into Semiconductors Liquid-phase Epitaxy Techniques Molecular Beam Epitaxy Chemical Vapor Deposition Vacuum Technology Pumping Hazardous Gases Modern Analytical Techniques in Corrosion Research Registration A brochure describing the short courses in more detail will be sent to MRS members shortly. In some instances the level of preregistration may determine whether or not a planned course can be offered, so registration well in advance is encouraged. Specific inquiries about short courses should be directed to the Society's Headquarters in Pittsburgh.
